you ON the basis of what they cost, regard
less of their credit valuation. You may
have seen an $3.50 horse or mule of last
spring sold recently under the auctioneer's
hammer for less than one half that sum
bought, of course by the man with ready
dollars, who makes his cash do what credit
failed to do.
Well, it's the way with the world, and
while it leaves disaster and defeat to some
it enables us to bring values to you I'M
known before. We have been astonished
ourselves at the immense volume of our
trade. And now to begin the new year,

but is going to stay.
We wish to return our thanks to the

that took their stand upon the new
Constitution as whole.
Another happy augury for the
country's future is that the Portu-
guese vote, as shown particularly by
the results in the sixth ward, has gone
solid for reform. This is gratifying
from the element of disinterestedness,
as regards the Reform ticket from
the point of view of a mooted repre-
sentation of that nationality which
was not accorded, showing that this
large element of the population is
attached to the cause of reform for its
own sake.
Yet another class calls for an ap-
predatory word, and that is 1.-THE
boys" whom an orator of the Both of
June, in the crispest of speeches, said
he was going TO follow. The young
men of Honolulu have acquitted
themselves with great credit in their
exertions in organization and prose
cution of the campaign. They paid no
heed to supercilious sneers at their
youth, but went to work with will
at the beginning and with un-
tagging zeal threw all their energies
into the campaign, never resting until
yesterday closed upon the noblest
political victory, and that largely of
their winning, which was ever re-
corded in the annals of Hawaii.

LAST spring. funds were low in the
Treasury. and the Appropriation bill
did not suit the Cabinet; therefore,
after the manner of the great minds
which then fnanciered the country,
a Cabinet resolution was ''resoluted,'
and the Appropriation bill was tink.
cred up to suit the times. The re-
suit of this tinkering was as follows ::

spent as follows: AIanoa road, $40 :;

So far as concerned people who had
read the intermediate Report of the
Minister of Finance, there was no
necessity of paying any attention to
the letter of " Finance in the Bm

of it, showed an intention to deceive
persons who had not familiarized
themselves with the gist of the FL

policy in the document referred to.
There were. however, deliberate state
mepts in the letter in question, refer

this class that the truth is sure TO
overtake their untruths. What they

A LONDON dispatch to the New York
World discusses the recent trials of
the British navy, partly by way of
warning to the United States, now
engaged in constructing a navy and
following the British models. 1t is
held by the correspondent that the
heavily armored war vessels are weak
against the assaults of modern artil
lery, while if an accident happens to
one of them she is much more com
pletely disabled than one of the old
wooden ships. The correspondent pro
ceeds to refer to the enormous amount
of fuel required for those heavy cruis-
ers, making coaling stations within a
few days reach from any point an
absolute necessity. In this connec-
ton the writer makes the following
significant remarks: 1T was on ac-
count of this absolute necessity of
storing coal supplies that the English
are SO much agitated over the SUI
premacy of the United States in the
Sandwich Islands 1t was on &C
count of their interests in this direc-
ton that so much consideration was
paid to the Queen of the Sandwich
Islands when she was here.
The American statesmen who have
been in England this summer and
comprehend the Importance that Eng
land has set upon this island will go
back to Washington next winter pre-
pared to strengthen the interests of
the United States in that direction.
1t would not be at all surprising
if there should be a proposition pre-
scented some time next winter for our
Government to acquire the Sandwich
Islands. The present King is
now practically deposed, and the
question of their annexation to the
United States involves many more
considerations than one of mere ex-
penditure of money. The English
cannot protect their interests in the
Pacific Ocean without good coaling
stations"
From the foregoing it would seem
that Great Britain's ambition to
maintain her position as mistress
Of the seas" and, in view of that, the
United States jealousy of her own in
terests, are each a menace to Hawaiian
independence. The degree of danger
however, depends upon the manner
in which Hawaii will henceforth con
duct her domestic affairs. With
Government that will commend itself
TO the world as ono of economy
wisdom and progress doing full
justice to all legitimate foreign in
terests established here to the gen
eral advantage of the country-Ha-
waits weakness will in the future as
in the past be her strength. Any
thing but constitutional, responsible
government will throw the nation as
a prize into the lap of whatever
foreign Power may bring the most
clever diplomacy or the strongest
force into competition for it.
